    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStoveFrying pan
    💡Sear in batches in a scorching pan: a crowded pan cools down, and the chicken steams instead of browning.
    💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
  5. 5
    Thinly slice the red onion and tomatoes.
